On your way up? What else is below Ass Manager besides "sandwich artist."

I lolled at the ego.

I love it when they get described as that. When it comes to pompus job titles that is the king!

Barista = can press the button on a Gaggia machine.

Well, it's all about wording it properly. The first being what you did, the second being how you word it:

Worked the deep fryer = Acted as sous-chef in popular lunch venue
Bagged groceries = Coordinated order fulfilment
Answered phones = Interfaced with clients
Mowed lawns = Landscaped for private clients
Made beds = Arranged accommodations for a hotel
Dug ditches = Industrial waste facilitator
Waited tables = Managed client relations
Babysat = Child development consultant
Folded clothes at a department store = Sales associate in the garment industry
Gas station / convenience store clerk = Auto mechanic's assistant
Lifeguard = Health and safety supervisor
Washed dishes = Restaurant critic
Lifted boxes in a warehouse = Inventory manager
Centrefold = Centrefold

Best workers are often very vocal about things , and isnt afraid to speak their mind ( because they care).
When they do , it might threaten the leadership or competence of the boss.


Life Guard = Life Guard!!!

Therefore the best boss is being your own boss, you can make your own hours and blame yourself when his/her cold hand slips down your pants.
